Why oh why are we not establishing a running game ?
Augie replied to Returntoglory's topic in The Stadium Wall
You always try to get better, at every position. Nobody is saying we are elite at either position. I will grade the OL run blocking below the RB’s. Feel free to disagree. -

My point is RB is NOT the BIGGEST problem! Not by a long shot. We are adequate at RB (not great, but let’s see how Cook progresses), we are not adequate on the OL for run blocking. I pray that Kromer can make improvements as the year goes on. . -

YEARS in the league is an adequate sample size to compare YPC, even if they are used differently. -
I think you and @muppy are onto something, and it’s the reason some people have to work longer, harder and, well…….smarter maybe not so much. 😋 .

Has a bionic elbow been mentioned yet? Terry can afford it! Other than that, we seriously upgrade at least two OL spots before next year, and work on a real run game.

Terrel Bernard was absolutely abused yesterday

And he was almost a 4th rounder, or in that general neighborhood. Good teams have more good players, and it’s tougher to find an opening. It’s just how it works. In the bad old days it was easier for a guy to come in and make an immediate impact. -
It’s gonna be a looooong week.

A heating pad on his back might help that. Or is it ice, then heat? He did not look sharp, that is for sure.

I started by saying exactly that. -

Those were, inexplicably, two of the worst throws of his career. -

Let’s not get carried away. I appreciate what our GM has created. Beane has built one of the best rosters in the league. Every team has weaknesses. Our #1 problem is OL. That has to be next, but in the meantime we need to get as far as we can this year. -

You sound angry. Not necessarily rational, but very angry. We do not block well on offense. Period. I hope Kromer can improve that over the course of the season. . -

Facts are facts. Yet there is a reason they picked up Cook and Hines, they want more explosiveness. It will not appear often enough until we can control the LOS. THAT is where the game is won, or lost….like today.
